Dragon NaturallySpeaking 11.5 is an extremely accurate dictation-transcription and voice command tool. With Dragon and your voice, you can control virtually any computer program, after getting over an acceptably small learning curve.

Dragon NaturallySpeaking 11.5 Premium, a voice command and dication program, needs samples of your voice in action in order to work. When you install the program, one of the first things you'll do is read aloud some text as it appears on screen. This practice also helps you get used to speaking aloud to Dragon and watching the slight lag time from when you speak to when it analyzes what you've said.

When you first start Dragon NaturallySpeaking, you'll be asked to indicate your accent, although if you select "standard" and decide later you want to change it, you can. Additionally, the software will acclimate itself to your speech patterns and accent after it has several examples of your speech.

With Dragon NaturallySpeaking, you can give commands while the program is transcribing. A small text box appears to verify the command as the application carries it out.
